Guests

Seth Hunter is a PhD student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). His research focuses on the development of environments that support meaningful social experiences and creative engagement.

Kendra Markle works with the Persuasive Technology Lab at Stanford University. Her company AlterActions.org focuses on the development of persuasive technology tools with the aim of realizing sustainable behavior change.

Nadya Peek from the MIT media lab will tell us more about her research into sensors and sensor methods for individuals to help them make the invisible visible.

Sensor Fest

Sensor Fest takes place on November 23, 24 and 25 at Mediamatic Bank. It sheds a light on the newest developments in the world of sensors. Sensors are increasingly employed in the creative sector, as well as in the world of medicine, agriculture, new media, and by the government. What can sensors tell us about ourselves and the world?

On the first day of Sensor Fest the interactive installations made during the Dev Camp will be presented and taken for a test drive. On the day 2 Ignite Amsterdam 3 takes place: 15 presenters get 5 minutes each to present their sensor-related project.
